Kids sharing classroom log-in access
A teacher was conducting an in-class and online test. During the test, multiple other students that are not apart of the class gained access online and started yelling profanities causing a huge classroom disturbance during the test. The teacher has no idea who these students were but knows that one of her students must have shared the log-in access with them to cause this disturbance. She is very worried that this will keep happening and doesn't know how to minimize or deny access to students that aren't in her class. She wants to find out who shared this information and who the loose lips were. What steps can she take stop this from happening in the future and should she look into who could have shared this information? |

Would it be possible to contact Microsoft Teams support or school administration for support? I believe it's possible to get a new code for a new "class" from MT.
From here, be sure to discuss this problem with students and explain the issues that come across giving random people access to a class server. Best case scenario would be that ONLY these people come in to cause disturbances. People could have come in and done worse.
You could always also make a new Microsoft Teams class every day. Bit tedious but that's what one of my (college) classes did. |

If I were in this situation, this is how I would approach the issue. |

I would certainly address this immediately by removing the online room previously used. There are options for establishing a room where entry is only permitted once you grant them access. |

I use Microsoft teams weekly and I think this solution would work well! |

I know that on Zoom you can use a waiting room, where you would have to manually let each student in. Then once everyone is in, you could stop letting people into the class meeting. This may help keep unwanted visitors out, because you could take them out of the class as soon as you let them in, and keep them out. Also, talk to you students about the importance of keeping log in access private. |

Teachers can create a new "classroom" each time a class happens. There is also the option for the teacher to manually permit each student into the class through Teams. Students are invited into the class by the teacher only.
For finding out who interrupted may come forward. The best option is for you as the teacher to talk to each class you have. Remind the students how important it is for them to keep the login information to themselves.
If this continues to happen, even after the talks with the class, start to include the administration into this issue. Students will either come forward about the issue or will stop sharing the information before getting into more trouble. |

If this keeps happening, the teacher can alert the class that when she finds out who did it, they will have very serious consequences. Or alert an administrator. |

I know with Microsoft Teams you should be able to change the permissions on who you can allow in the classroom. |

First, the teacher should reach out to Microsoft teams and request a new code for the class. After that, the teacher should discuss with the class what happened and the consequences if it happens again. The consequences need to be serious as this is a serious issue. The teacher could also have a link sent out rather than a code so that only the students at the class time are able to log on. |

I am unsure which platform the teacher was using to conduct the test, but from my experience, I think Zoom would be the best option to attempt to prevent this issue from happening again. Through Zoom, the teacher could create a new meeting link and password each time and only share this information with their class right before the test is conducted. They could also alter the settings so that a waiting room is established. That way, each student must be let in by the teacher, ensuring that no student that is not granted access by the teacher is able to enter. Finally, the teacher should discuss with their students the issue as well as the potential consequences if it persists. |

I believe the teacher has control of all parties involved in a group meeting and has the ability to mute all students. I would have the teacher look through the Q & A section of Teams and try to find out how she can mute all students. Or possibly talk to a fellow teacher, they might know how to mute all students. As far as students sharing log-in access, I would send a letter home to all parents making them aware of the situation and reiterate that students sharing their log-in access has serious consequences. |

I would talk to IT to get the students locked out and next time the students log in (if they log in again) I would look at the user name they have and try to match it to one of the students in the class. |

The teacher could routinely change the student's passwords to the testing sight and give the log-in information right before each test. This way the students will not be able to share their log-ins with anyone else. She should also have a conversation with the class about the importance of testing confidentiality. |
